News About This Theater

Eric Feasterville

Opened October 18, 1972 as a single screen theatre, it was on Bustleton Pike right between Street Road and the Buck Hotel. If you couldn’t find something you wanted to see here, you could just bop across the street to the Bucks County Twin Theatre that was nestled inside a rather skimpy little mall.

I once sat outside the Eric Feasterville after a movie and listened to a mother berate the box office clerk for the violent content of “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom”. Fun times. It was converted into two screens on May 28, 1982 and another two screens were added beside on December 17, 1982. It was closed in 1996.

This theatre should be listed as Closed/Demolished, since there is a Giant [PA] (former Genuardi’s) located there.

The theatre, as well as part of the shopping center, was torn down for the Genuardi’s/Giant [PA] store.

Here was another theater without a marquee. Not even a poster light box. Maybe that’s why this theater failed, no one knew what was playing. When did the Eric 4 Feasterville open? How many seats? Who was the architect? What was the style? When did it close? Five reviews and not a clue! Doesn’t anyone have any information on the Eric 4 Feasterville?

Judging by the looks of the cover photo, this was probably a large single screen at one time that was cut up into 4.

When this theatre became a 4-plex, Screens #3 & 4 were built behind the original building. The original building was split int a twin, and the other 2 screens were to the left of Screens #1 & 2.

The majority of the Eric Theatres did not have a marquee on the building, but instead had the streetside marquee that was on a signpost. This location, as well as the Eric MacDade Mall Theatre, the ERic Stratford Theatre, as well as the AMC 309 Cinema 9 Theatre, are good examples.
